Why This Works:
Wood Ash Properties: It’s alkaline, dry, and contains potassium salts that help preserve food. It absorbs moisture and prevents bacteria or fungi from growing.
Low-Cost Preservation: This method doesn’t require refrigeration, making it ideal for rural or off-grid settings.
Things to Keep in Mind:
Only use clean, dry wood ash—avoid ash from treated or painted wood.
Tomatoes should be ripe but firm—overripe ones may rot regardless.
Store the box in a cool, shaded area away from direct sunlight and moisture.
